Kashyap ''damaging'' image of BSP in J

Jammu, Oct 18 (UNI) Jammu and Kashmir Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) president has alleged that national general secretary and in charge J &K affairs Narinder Kashyap is ''damaging'' the party's image in the state.

''Mr Kashyap is intentionally ''damaging'' the image of the BSP in Jammu and Kashmir and he should immediately be withdrawn from the party,'' alleged Mr Yashpal Bhagat at a press conference here yesterday.

Mr Bhagat asserted that his party cadre had lost faith in the leadership as he (Mr Kahyap) is dismissing the party loyalists in a bid to make party weaker for vested interests.

''Hefty amount is being exchanged for introducing weak candidates while the ones deserving are being ignored by the national leader,'' Mr Bhagat added.

The state president further said Mr Kashyap and Mr Chouhan have degraded themselves to the lowest level and sent very wrong message among the BSP cadre and the people and added, '' party president Mayawati should immediately recall Mr Kashyap for the betterment of the BSP in the state as elections are at the doorstep.''
